Ingredients

  • 2 8.5oz box Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
  • 2 egg
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 3 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1/2 cup canned corn drained
  • 1-2 jalapeños seeded and diced
  • 2/3 cup shredded cheddar cheese optional

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, gently stir the Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix, egg, sour cream, and milk until just combined.
    2 8.5oz box Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix, 2 egg, 2/3 cup milk, 3 tablespoons sour cream
  • Stir in the corn, diced jalapeños, and cheese (if using).
  • For best results, allow the batter to sit for 10 minutes to rest. You can use that time to preheat your oven to 400°F and use paper liners or grease a muffin pan.
  • I like to use a cookie scoop to evenly spoon the batter into the muffin tin, filling each about 2/3 full.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before removing from the pan. Serve warm or room temperature.

Notes

Storage

To Store: Leftover cornbread muffins should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. (These are my favorite airtight containers.)
To Reheat: The easiest way to reheat these muffins is to wrap them loosely in a paper towel and microwave for 15 to 20 seconds. If you have a whole batch to reheat, it’s easier to wrap them in aluminum foil and warm in an oven set to 300F for about 8 minutes.
To Freeze: Allow the muffins to cool completely, then wrap each muffin individually in plastic wrap and store in a freezer-safe bag. Don’t forget to label the bag and include the date. They’ll last about 2-3 months in the freezer.
To Thaw: Move the muffins from the freezer to the fridge and allow them to thaw overnight.
